The RiteAid offer is good in metro ATL. Luckily, near the Staples I use, is both a RA and Lowes.

Ditto. During late round to complete max yesterday, stores around were out of 200 so still went ahead with 4 x 100, pending amounts. I am sure will be alright, during entering rebates it clearly showed $60 card.

Funny that for other rebate on FAR software that had ~$60 VISA rebate they still showed the option to change reward but clicking produced only 1 choice. Even that rebate is in same state.

Just getting around to entering some SER's. Showing $30 gc for each $200 gc purchase. Looks like they've straightened everything out.

I checked again this morning and my rebates entered on 11/14 are still showing validation in progress and reward amount pending. Previously it showed the $150 total.

Yes same here, validation not done yet ...

Anyone know if these prepaid visa / master cards can be used at serve.com to withdraw cash or attract fees or any sorts? I am reluctant to join AP due to SSN

I checked again this morning and my rebates entered on 11/14 are still showing validation in progress and reward amount pending. Previously it showed the $150 total.Bought mine on 11/11 & 11/12 and all are showing "validation complete" but "Reward amount pending".

On the Staples rebate site, mine still says reward amount pending, but on http://www.rebateshq.com/ the amounts have been updated. I bought a single $200 card and then 4 $200 cards. Initially it had them at rebates of $30 and $150, but now they're $30 and $120.

I had two 3x$200 purchases, but only 1 shows up when I search by name & zip so I had to manually search for it by tracking number -- both show $90 GC and processing

tajar96 said: When are we expected to get the rebates ? Holding off on buying a shredder and laptopThe rebate says 6-9 weeks. Since these are now marked validation complete for some people it is POSSIBLE they could arrive in 2-3 weeks but since the rebate says 6-9 weeks there is no basis to complain if they do not show up in 2-3 weeks.

Anyone that bought RiteAid Home Improvement GCs over Thanksgiving Weekend, check your receipt for the UP Reward. I was pleasantly surprised today to see 12/8 expiry of the $20 UP Reward.

I checked my rebates at RebatesHQ and they all seem to be a $30 for a single $200 card. Did the person who bought 6 $200 cards end up getting the rebates on all of them? Or did they cap it at $150? I wonder if the SER site will ever get updated with the correct amounts?

Since these were made before that took effect and are completely validated, I don't see why they should not ship in the normal time frame.

Sorry, my mistake. This was 11/23, I checked the receipt again. Post is fixed.

What is the official return period? Last time I looked it was not on their website. Last year it started 11/13.

Yes, that's what I meant.

Another thing, I see that the MC says "Electronic use only", it's right below the MC logo. Does it mean I can't use it at a B&M store?

I assume that means no using the old method of using embossed manual multi-carbon forms of payment. So, yes you can use them at B&M stores.

In any case, on rebateshq dot com the status of my rebates is showing "Your rebate is valid and is scheduled for final processing". Parago likes to update some statuses on Monday mornings IIRC so I will check this coming Monday to see if this status has changed at all.

they don't need to be activated but might need to be registered. If you use them online the vendor doesn't see your name/telephone number so may reject the purchase. Registering allows them to match the card to the person ordering like a regular credit card.
